Important Information: Using Your Hawaii Home as a Rental Property

Are you a home owner in Hawaii and considering holding onto your property when you leave Hawaii on Military PCS orders, Retirement Orders or something similar?  What would you do with your house when you leave?  If you plan on keeping the house and using it as an investment/rental property, you should be aware that you could very possibly be subjected to the HARPTA tax which the state of Hawaii taxes people who are non-owner occupants of property and who sell their property at a future date.  For example:  If the Military Servicemember in Hawaii had a home that they used for a rental property after they left Hawaii and then several years later they sold the property, they would almost certainly be subject to the HARPTA tax.  The HARPTA tax is 5% of the amount realized.  If the house sold for $650,000 then the tax would be $32,500.00.  On a $350,000 house, the HARPTA tax would be $17,500.00.  That is definitely something for you to keep in mind if you decide to use your piece of Hawaii real estate as a rental.  Since I am not a tax professional or attorney, I suggest you check out the State of Hawaii Department of Taxation Website for further information and clarification.

If you are in the military and are considering purchasing a home in Hawaii, this might be a great opportunity for you to do that.  With the historically low interst rates on VA loans in Hawaii, the high BAH rates and the shortage of rental properties, there is no better time to be an owner/seller/landlord/investor.  I also manage rental properties and I have ZERO available.  All of my rental properties are currently occupied yet my phone continues to ring daily with calls from Service Members that are looking for homes to rent.

For more information on purchasing a home in Hawaii, selling a home in Hawaiii or how you can use your BAH to build wealth for yourself, contact David Kucic, First Sergeant Retired, President/O

 

Shortage of Homes For Sale, Oahu, Hawaii Dec 21, 2012

There is a severe shortage of homes for sale on Oahu, Hawaii.  This is both for existing homes and new construction.  Buyers and their real estate agent need to be ON TOP OF THE MARKET or they will miss out on the homes that come on the market.  If a new property comes on the market, you MUST go out to see it as soon as possible because if you wait til the weekend or until the next week, the house will most likely be taken by someone else assuming it is priced correctly, it is in decent condition and it is in a good location.  For new home sales, developers are using the “lottery system” to sell houses.  Yes, that’s right, people are having to “win” the right to buy a home in Hawaii!

A few of the hottest markets are Ewa Beach, Kapolei, Makakilo, Koolina, Mililani and Waikele.  For more information on Hawaii real estate, Short Sales in Hawaii, VA loans in Hawaii and any other real estate information on the island of Oahu, contact David Kucic of Hawaii Military Realty, Inc.
